Hello everbody,

I am starting to experiment with batterys.
Right now i just opended some old laptop batterys i had at home and did some research. I already bought a opus BT-C3100 to charge and test this cells.

So now i got my handy on a new battery.. i guess its a so called lipo. (Please see picture)
This is written on the lipo:
PSEBATTERY
H802235 580 mAh
2.15Wh HC 14A05

First: what kind is this battery? => lipo?

Second: how can i charge and test the capacity of it?
If possible as cheap as possibe as im just experimenting right now...

Would be great to get some help from you!


Thanks,

Thanks,

LiPo is Lithium polymer battery. Is another chemistry and also for different shapes. Newer slim lounge devices tend to use lipo batteries.

I charged primastic battery with Opus. If qll you have is tabs, use crocodile clips and connect to something like imax as mentioned
 
Thanks for your hints!

yes this battery discharhes after 2 days.. thats why i am playing around with it... ingiess it has a short short in the inside

So i guess i have to go for the imax charger... thanks everybody...
I hoped there is a little chinese pcb board to charge and thest this baterys

If there's physical damage or itsswollen, I'd put it straight into battery recycling
